These emotions are something that I don't *usually feel* when look at the photograph. Therefore I decided that I should mention that perhaps Frank did not intend for me to *feel* the emotions, but nevertheless I did feel that way. Also, do you want it or not but when you make a photograph you mix in a bit of yourself and further when you show it to the public you expose that little bit along the way. Even the most primitive - "me and the Empire State Building" photo has it. I hope I made myself clearer.

Photography, to me, has always been my way of recording, mainly for MYSELF, what I see from time to time, and as a memory prompter of a slice of time... If I should happen to share it with someone, well, that someone might just sit back, metaphorically speaking, and enjoy themselves ~ perhaps even wonder what THEY might have felt had they been there at that very moment. Maybe do a lot of H-ing. But no, they have to ANALYZE it, and try to figure out what YOU felt! Who knows or cares? If you feel nothing in particular, walk on, my friend...there's a lot more to look at in this world than what once moved me to record it's image.

RE: PESO - candle experiment
Looks kinda perfect to me. Perhaps a litle light on the background as well would increase depth and make it slightly more intersting.

Re: PESO - candle experiment
Thankyou for your comments: Boris: cropping too tight is something that I am struggling to overcome as I am learing to shoot (I over-crop in-camera). I think that my sub-consious sees the tiny image in the tiny view finder and thinks that I need to be closer in order for the subject to be clearly seen or something equally silly. Rick: I took quite a few shots (this being the first) because I kept getting annoyed that the flames would not 'be the same', and in the end I chose this one for teh very reason that you mentioned. Godfrey: It is interesting that you would say that. all my thumbnails are cropped square, and just last night one of my friends (not on the list) told me he thought several of my pictures made more interesting compositions as the square thumbnails. When I went back to look at them that way, this picture was the first one to jump out at me as wanting to be square. Maybe tonight I will recrop and repost.. thanks again for your input Russell On 9/24/06, Russell Kerstetter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Had this candle burning and thought I'd take a picture. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
Re: PESO - candle experiment
I like it too. I'd probably go even more radical and crop it tighter and square... ;-) Godfrey On Sep 24, 2006, at 6:28 PM, Russell Kerstetter wrote: > Had this candle burning and thought I'd take a picture.

Re: PESO - candle experiment
Brutally, honestly, all I can say is... I like it. Nice color, composition; the differences between the two flames is intriguing too.

Russel, I think it is too tight from the top. Flames need air to keep burning... Otherwise - although common, this is very well done.
